Fellow hams,

I am starting to hear a little bit about FT9; could someone please direct me towards a good source or two to help me learn more about it, what software package revisions I need and how well they integrate with DXLab programs?

Re: Upload to LOTW/QRZ/eQSL/Clublog after N1MM import

 

I also did get some errors after importing as well. How do I fix that before uploading?> "Illegal - can't find country code for
callsign TO4A and TO3Z: QSO's DXCC entity is unspecified."
Typically, one would load AD1C's Big CTY file and/or Clublog's overrides
file into DXView's Overrides List *before* importing and check "enable
override checking" on DXKeeper's Import tab.

Since you have already done the import, filter the Log Page Display
for DXCCID='0' and manually update the country for TO4A (FM), TO3Z (FG)
and any other QSOs that had ambiguous prefixes.

This is a case where the developers of N1MM simply do not care about
their users. They know the DXCCID (country) but refuse to export it
in the standard ADIF format.

I imported my log from N1MM I used during the ARRL DX contest this weekend, however I'm a bit lost how to get those bulk contacts then uploaded into LOTW/QRZ/eQSL/Clublog from DxKeeper.
Is "Initial LotW Sent to 'R' for each Logged or imported QSO" checked
on QSL Config -> LotW? If so, Select the QSL Tab -> LotW and click
"Add Requested". Select the correct Station Callsign and Station
Location (they should already be set unless you use a different call
for contsting) and click "Upload to LotW"

To upload to ClubLog ... Select the QSL Tab -> ClubLog and click
the Upload to CLubLog button.

JTAlert is what tells DXKeeper to perform a lookup, not Wsjtx.
Check your JTAlert settings "Applications -> DXLab Suite" section.

Running DXKeeper and JTAlet on 2nd Computer

DXKeeper
SpotCollector
DXView

WSJT-X?
JTAlert

They all talk to each other fine. If I enter a call in WSJT-X DX Call Box, DXKeeper instantly performs a lookup of prior contacts with that station?and lists them.?

On my Win 10 Computer I? have :
DXKeeper (only when Win11 copy is Closed!)
JTAlert
WSJT-X

If, as I should, I close DXK on Win11, and bring up DXK on the WIN10, all the contacts are there. JTAlert displays the decoded wsjt-x contacts?just fine.?

However, when I type a callsign in the DX Callbox in WSJT-X, DXKeeper does not perform a lookup of all the previous contacts.?

I'm stumped? What?do I need to do when running?the Networked copy of DXK (on Win10 machine), to act like the Win 11 does and perform?a lookup of all prior contacts.

It should be mentioned that the Win10 copy of DXK and WSJT-X is NOT configured for transmit. I don't even have a transmitter on the Win10 machine, just an SDR. JTAlert seems to be happy with this setup but the missing piece is WSJT-X won't force a Lookup of prior qsos with a call in DXKeeper.

Re: Spotcollector behavior

 

Thanks for the explanation, Dave I did crosscheck against the DX Spotting network on QRZ and it did not appear to be affected. Probably isolated to certain Networks and I just happen to have one or more of them as a Source for Spotcollector.

On 03/02/2025 2:13 PM EST Dave AA6YQ <aa6yq@...> wrote:


Has anyone else had my recent experience with multiple "spots" from a single callsign showing up in Spotcollector at the same time. In one instance a Polish station nearly filled the entire Spotcollector screen This just happened again with two or three callsigns showing up, filling the page.
I do not think it is a Spotcollector issue per se but likely something from each of the Networks. Weird behavior, never experienced it before.

+ Yes: large number of spots of a single callsign on multiple frequencies - more than 10 - simultaneously, repeated for several different callsigns.

+ A persistent implementation of this would constitute a denial-of-service attack that would render the DX Cluster network useless. This vulnerability will persist until DXCluster operators gain the ability to revoke a client's ability to generate outgoing spots.
